22:14 Note: We read one or more accents in L differently than BHS. Often this notation indicates a typographical error in BHS.

If you decided in the previous verse to translate this quotation as an indirect quotation, you can continue to do that in this verse. In many languages it will not be necessary to change the wording from that of a direct quotation.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
וְלֹ֣א יִרְאֶ֑ה
and=not he/it_will_see
Eliphaz implicitly means that by saying this, Job means that God does not see what is happening on earth. You could indicate that in your translation if it would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “and he does not see what is happening on earth”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
וְח֥וּג שָׁ֝מַ֗יִם יִתְהַלָּֽךְ
and,dome heaven walks
The implication is that because the dome of the heavens is above the clouds, the clouds block God’s view of the earth. You could indicate that in your translation if it would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “indeed, he walks around on the dome of the heavens, where the clouds block his view of the earth”
22:12-14 That’s why: Job had not claimed that God can’t see, but others have (Pss 10:11; 73:11; 94:7).

22:14 Note: We read one or more accents in L differently than BHS. Often this notation indicates a typographical error in BHS.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
